| is.evaluation.notes | In total, 103 CARs concerned in social sector.“The main social improvement by certification under FSC was the implementation of safety and health guidelines at site level. (29% of all social CARs)” Another issue was the involvement of relevant stakeholders and the participation of local communities in the planning of forest activities. (26% of all social CARs) However, when it comes to employment rights, company named ‘Holz Dammers' had majority of related CARs (13 of 16 CARs) due to the delay of wage payment. | |
| is.evaluation.notes | In total, 116 CARs concerned in economic sector.The main economic improvement which mentioned by 69% of all economic CARs was:“… enhancement of the quality of forest management planning, including appropriate documentation, monitoring and the verification of the long-term sustainability of the actual harvesting volume” Also, “11 of the 12 forest companies had to improve monitoring system. Specific issues were harvest site control and monitoring flora, changing soil and water conditions as well as the efficiency of measures to preserve HCVF attributes.” In addition, ‘Holz Dammer' had a permanent problem determining the sustainable harvesting volume. | |
| is.evaluation.notes | This is a CAR-analysis of FM CHs in Russia, including the state forests. 46% of CARs raised concerned ecological issues.Most of the improvements observed in Russia following certification concern the same topics as those observed in Latvia. In addition, the authors note that Ecosystem based management planning on a landscape level has been developed and represent a new approach in Russia. Also, disposal of waste related to logging operation has been improved. | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | Certification under FSC improved the assessment of environmental impacts and introduced ecosystem based management planning on a landscape level, which is a new approach in Russian forestry. | |
